Play’n GO have released their latest title into the market, a simple yet engaging slot entitled Inferno Star.

Following on from the successful launches of Mahjong 88 and their most recent release, Sabaton, Play’n GO have once again decided to switch up the formula by releasing a simpler game, adding to the versatility of their existing portfolio.

Inferno Star is an easy to play 5×3 video slot made more engaging with its innovative re-spin feature and the decision to make the game payout with a minimum of only two matching symbols, as opposed to the usual three.

The simplicity of the game is also augmented by the potential of the game. Along with an attractive paytable, the slot also has big win possibilities and a large 2,500x bet win cap for players to enjoy.

Johan Törnqvist, CEO of Play’n GO discussed the importance of versatility and quality in a casino offering:

“Modern players know what they want and, in the current market, it’s important to provide them with that or else they’ll look elsewhere for their entertainment.

However, more importantly, they know what makes a good game. So, part of our challenge is to make sure there’s something for them to enjoy in every game as well as catering to different tastes.

So even though we have such a diverse range of games in our portfolio, they all feature that Play’n GO quality that players enjoy.”

The game also sees the return of Play’n GO’s classic ‘Gamble’ feature where, after winning a prize, players have the chance to double or quadruple their winnings by correctly guessing the colour or the suit of a random playing card.

Inferno Star is available to play now.

North Star Network are delighted to announce the acquisition of umdoisesportes.com.br, which becomes the latest addition to NSN’s global sports media portfolio.

Born from the GRPCOM merger of the editorial teams of Gazeta Do Povo and Tribuna do Paraná in 2020, Um Dois Esportes provides in-depth sports coverage and analysis for the Brazilian state of Paraná and beyond.

North Star Network co-founder Julien Josset said: “Thank you to the team at GRPCOM for their faith in us to take the brand forward. Um Dois Esportes is an established and renowned site in Paraná State, and we’re excited about the challenge of developing this asset.”

“We’re happy to maintain the collaboration with the existing editorial team, and look forward to working with them, bringing our unique NSN approach, to take UDE forward.” NSN’s signing of Um Dois Esportes is the media house’s fourth acquisition of 2024, following the recent deals to purchase UK-based SportsMole and MrFixitsTips, as well as Chilean site AlAireLibre, which was announced in March.

The latest addition to the North Star media portfolio joins existing assets including Top Mercato, Afrik-Foot, and Vringe. The Paris-based company already oversees a significant Brazilian operation, delivering over 6 million sessions per month, from the likes of Trivela, Premier League Brasil and Lakers Brasil.

NSN will retain Curitiba-based journalists from the Um Dois Esportes legacy team to maintain the asset’s unique tone and popular coverage of the Paraná sports scene across site and social.

“We were surprised by the interest, and initially had no intention of selling Um Dois, but as the conversations evolved, we realised this was a serious group with good intentions,” said GRPCOM Director Rafael Mello. “We were very happy to see our project being valued by a large international group and going global, demonstrating the quality of the content we produced.”

“We’re also proud that North Star inherited our journalists, who are truly responsible for the success of the product we offer readers every day.”
